how much weight can the shelves support?

I haven't reached a limit yet and I've got some shelves with at least 500 lbs. on them. I believe the advertised limit is 400 lbs per shelf, or 2000 lbs for a 5 shelf unit. The load on any individual shelf needs to be distributed over the whole shelf.

I have shoes on these shelves. I guess it would depend on how you have the unit attached, to walls or free standing units . Im sure they could hold more than 50 lbs easily.

I figure it was about 35-45 lbs. Remember it can hold up to 350lbs per shelf!! Its worth the effort.

If you remove the straps the shelf goes beyond 90 degrees and stops. It will hold a load but I am not sure how much weight it will support.

The lower two shelves could hold that. I wouldn't put more than 50lbs or so on these though, unless you anchor it to the wall somehow.

No sure on weight but my shelves are loaded with childrens books and toys. They are really sturdy.

I would say the top shelf would support at least fifty pounds. We used the top shelf as a bar. Ten to fifteen wine and liquor bottles plus ice. The second and third shelves would probably support at least as much.

Based on my experience, it depends on how they're anchored. If they're screwed Into studs, their only limit is the strength of the glass shelving. I replaced the plastic expansion sleeves that were provided, they had a bit of wobble, with much stonger metal molly bolts, and now all 7 shelves are rock solid. I'm entrusting them with $2,000 worth of vibrating surround sound speakers.

Not sure but mine support at least a full load of books. Seem just as sturdy as any bookshelves, though they're definitely better looking than most!

Item description currently says "Each shelf can support up to 75 pounds for those hefty audio components."So according to that, 65 pounds will be fine.

Terri, these shelves easily hold over 200 lbs dispersed across them - the limiting factor for weight is wheels breaking up due to total unit loading.

The unit is sturdier than it looks, but I would limit the weight on the shelf behind the double door to 50 pounds. The base shelf has more support and could handle at least 100 pounds.

It's pretty sturdy, but I think each shelf's weight limit is 10 pounds. I wouldn't try a TV on it.

At least 20-30 lbs for each shelf, I'd guess. I use mine as a liquor rack, and all the shelves are full. So it holds a good chunk of weight.

The shelves are just two L shaped brackets. They are pretty sturdy. I have a DVD player and cable box on mine and it's plenty strong enough for me. Depends how big and heavy they are.

The shelves are sturdy, with support at all 4 corners. Distributed evenly I would guess they could hold 10+ pounds. Mine store a dozen baseballs in holders, on each shelf, with no problem.
